Cool feature car, love the color!! Waiting for the writeup, want to know where it was sold from, options, etc....

Re: Feature Car
 

ditto!!!

Re: Feature Car
 

There was a Yenko just like this at a local cruise in Crystal Lake, Illinois, just a few months ago, but I remember that car as having Air Conditioning.

Has my memory failed me again or was the A/C added later in life [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/confused.gif[/img]

It is a very unique/outstanding color combination, cool Yenko.

Re: Feature Car
 

Actually, I think this car came with the AC from Yenko [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] I believe it is the only YSC with AC.

Re: Feature Car
 

Don't get your panties in a wad, fellas! I'm working as fast as I can! Write-up is coming soon! Oh, you are on the right track about the A/C...!

Re: Feature Car
 

That black vinyl top does it for me, is it original? Didn't think they were ordered that way. If it is original how many first gen Yenkos came with a vinyl roof, anybody have a definitive number on this?

Re: Feature Car
 

All right fellas, write-up is finished. Continue...flossing?

Re: Feature Car
 

Neat car, looking forward to seeing it in person next month.

Re: Feature Car
 

How many other 1968 Conversion Cars were non L78s?

Re: Feature Car
 

Do we know what YS-0## it is? Nice little history of the car, love that color!

Why would there not be any vinyl top '68 Yenko Camaros??

Re: Feature Car
 

I believe it's 8036, but I don't have the info in front of me.

Re: Feature Car
 

Rob, 8036 is Chuck Huber's old car that Cliff now owns. There is another 68 a/c car out there, 8026 and is in the hands of a guy on the board. I will attach a picture later that was taken a year ago when it was in storage here in the south. I can email it to you if you can change the image size for me as I have temporarily uninstalled my Photoshop....................RatPack.............. .........

Re: Feature Car
 

Yep, you're right! I had been discussing 8036 earlier in the day...guess I still had it on my mind. Anyway, the magic number is...

8037

Re: Feature Car
 

The car Ratpack is refering to was sold at a dealer in the Tampa Florida area. It has dealer installed a/c.Tim Newman once owned the car and has the document's on the a/c installation.

Re: Feature Car
 

Anybody know if this car was built with a 140 mph speedo?
A SuperCar with a AC would be great especially with the 90 + deg days we have been getting here. Nice car!

Re: Feature Car
 

Joe, when I looked at the 8026 car last year it had the 140 mph speedo.

Rob, how about posting the picture I sent you.......................RatPack................. ....

Re: Feature Car
 

Copolocator, was the dealership here in Tampa that sold the Yenko Ferman Chevrolet. I saw there name advertised as a Yenko dealer but got the impression from this board that they never sold any. I've talked to a few locals who said they saw at least one in the showroom, I was given a phone number of a salesman who was supposed to have sold one. Wes

Re: Feature Car
 

Yeah, I meant to post it last night, as I recieved it at the house, but after a late night at the shop, the instant I made it home I hit the sack. I then left for work without checking my mail...I'll post it at lunch, which is about 40 minutes away. Sit tight!

Re: Feature Car
 

Check your private message board for the last known number of the previous owner. If you find any info please post.

Re: Feature Car
 

It's my understanding that a LOT of the '68s went to Florida...why, I don't know.

Anyway, check the attachment for the picture!

Re: Feature Car
 

Rob,Indian River Chevrolet,Orlando Speed World(whose owner owns a ZL-1)and drag racing all year round.Numerous converted and copo cars are still there.

Re: Feature Car
 

I just got an email from the owners of this months feature car. There car came from Bob Salter Chevrolet in Pensacola Florida.

Re: Feature Car
 

Rob if I'm not mistaken I think I was told along time ago that the factory a/c car was a promo car that they used to tour the southern dealers with or was that another car?I think it was a bronze car?Could have already been posted on this sight before.But I would like to know to refresh my memory.

Re: Feature Car
 

Not sure about the tour thing, but the feature car is a Bronze car!
